Focus is key

Today is slow, good thing its Friday. We finished all our project and support work for our paying customers and I was caught in the indecision trap. I couldn't decide to work on documentation for the existing company (exico) or research for the new company (newco). Indecision often leads to paralysis. It is crucial to have a plan and execute that plan. In the early going (100 days or so) the plan should be extremely detailed to help maintain focus. Of course it doesn't help our focus to build newco in stealth mode while running the day to day operations of exico.

It might be time to build that plan...

Anyway, I compromised. I spent the morning working on the last piece of documentation for the exico product set. I spent the afternoon researching strategies for newco.

And we had a late exico marketing meeting for an upcoming trade show. The marketing department at exico is a disaster. More on that later...
